I've worked in marketing roles for two international companies and met a lot of media journalists/presenters. Most were egotistical wanders with an unhealthy sense of entitlement so saying something like welcome to Keys' world is commonplace. What I can't forgive is the chip stealing, or the lupine like hands.

You have met Damon then!

Steal my chips and I will f**king haunt you for a millennia.

Must have been a while ago, we don't get chips in the canteen any more, it's kale and banana smoothies and organic lentil and mushroom risotto now.  Fucking media luvvies.

That sounds like some sort of violation of human rights. It must be.

Who did he describe as a 'shithouse'?

Richard Keys.
From what a friend who worked at Sky told me, a perfectly reasonable description. (Ones I remember - Keys once angrily told a security guard who had asked to see his ID, "You're in Keys' world now," and also used to grab chips straight from the tray in the canteen with his hairy Wolfman hands).

I think Stan Collymore might visit this site - noticed on that programme the other night that he stressed/repeated that he'd played in EVERY game of the record winning streak, which had been refuted here prior to that.


And yet he didn't. Most consecutive games we won with him in the team was 3. Our record unbeaten start to 98/99 is what I assume he means, he played one of the first 6 of that run.

He played in every game as we set a club record by losing the first 4 games of the season though. Maybe he's getting mixed up. The most league games he played in a row for us was 10, which included the 4 straight defeats. The next longest was 7 games, twice.

People are quick to comment on his opinion so I think it's valid to say what's his line on the things. He's also a broadcaster involvedin modern day game.  Also there a thread of his so that shows there is interest.

I hope it's not to do with the fact villa are nt premier league this coming season (temporarily we all hope) he clearly resonates with the fans across uk and was a active broadcaster prepared to cover a range of hot topics . Good luck to him and hope he keeps his good health and well being.  Despite stans demons and faults he was still in touch with the fans and gave opinion he certainly no worse than any other ex footballer on talk sport.

I'm suprised too, thought he was a good fit for them and his shows and phone in were pretty good.  Always good to have a Villa voice in the national media too.

He was a good fit for Talksport, which is rather damning.
